Project overview
Our research into experiential learning has raised public awareness of the adverse effect of the dominance of negative news. The work has influenced leading media organisations to engage millions in a more constructive, solutions-focused approach to journalism. Research has involved exploring the impact of positive/negative and problem/solution focused news on audiences; interviewing news editors and journalists, and sharing results with students on journalism courses. Most of this work was carried out 2015-2017, and research since then has moved on to consider communication across other mediums such as fiction.
